When will anon go back to finishing Soulship #1? The first few chapters do have a bit happening so there is a lot going on to set up the scenario.
Did other anon start Radix?
Did other anons begin reading Sabriel yet?

This one always gets me laughing.

>finally check my 2021 books read
>10 less books than 2020 but over 2000 more pages read

What are some lesser known sci fi books that are good? Don't really want to lead Dune right now. I also really like Cyberpunk. Recommend reading the Takeshi Kovach's trilogy for anyone that likes dumb fun

A Thousand Li is decent.
>but it takes 5 books before you get invested
just pirate them like I do, at least it's nice to see the author continually improving, 1-4 is the first arc, and 5 was kickass. maybe the slow pacing could account for the low interest in the earliier books as well
>but it's so slow
No shit, it's more focused on inner growth/development over rampant power progression and the MC is actually, for once, more important than the world at large.

A fun progression story to read is Everybody Loves Large Chests. It's so fucking silly.

Bloodline was a big disappointment.

Is there anything by IET worth reading besides Coiling Dragon, Desolate Era, and Stellar Transformations?

>start of last book of Stellar Transformations
I'll be sad to see it go. I may read more recent IET stories in the future.
I'm probably 20% into the new Thousand Li book and it's good. It's nice to see the author improve as they go along, unlike Cradle's stagnation.

Huangfu Liejun’s expression had also grown dim. He sighed and said. “The war of the Divine Realm six quadrillion years ago was truly too fierce and cruel…. That battle could be considered as being the largest war since the formation of the Divine Realm. In that battle, over ten Godkings fell. As for High Level Heavenly Deities, the number of them that perished was innumerable.”

Qin Yu was overwhelmed with shock.

Over ten Godkings fell? Countless High Level Heavenly Deities died?

Gu Zhuang smiled bitterly and said. “Brother Qin Yu, let me tell you. The Three Great Palaces, Misty Mystic Palace, Black Wind Palace and the Heaven Desolate Palace, all three of them were named after their first Palace Master. In that battle… the first Palace Masters of the Misty Mystic Palace, Black Wind Palace and Heaven Desolate Palace all fell. I am someone who succeeded the Black Wind Palace’s Palace Master in the course of the battle.”

[TL: Misty Mystic Lan Xuan. Black Wind Hei Feng. Heaven Desolate Tian Huang. Liejun Great Split/Rend.]

“I am the same.” Ji Lusheng sighed and said. “That battle was truly too cruel and fiery. The battle spread through the entire Heaven and Earth… Practically all of the Godkings had shown themselves. Even Exalted Celestials had joined the battle in the shadows!”

Qin Yu’s heart shook with shock.

Exactly what sort of war happened six quadrillion years ago?

Qin Yu have once heard about the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan’s father-in-law mentioning this battle in Yuchi City. That High Level Deity had only mentioned that the Divine Realm would have a war every six billion years.

However, it appears now that the war of every six billion years was merely a small battle.

That battle from six quadrillion years ago was the true war of the Divine Realm.

Will the Amazon LOTR series forever tarnish the series in the minds of normies

The peak was and always has been Ghostwater.

>his series took like 4 books to get vaguely interesting
Heh, I thought the same. However, it was, from the start, a much more introspective series not hyper-focused on progression.

People have been calling that since several books ago, hack writer. Is it finally out then?
